That's a fantactic effort and a beautiful bird to boot. I've only managed to get one on the perch so far.

You can often find stands of Pampass in all sorts of places. There are a few in front yards near my place. You can also find it along roadsides in country areas and in un-tended areas around town - such as along train lines. As with so many things, once you start keeping an eye out for it, you tend to start seeing it everywhere...
